The most depressing bands and artists of all time

Need some cheering up? Sorry - this isn't for you

 

  • Radiohead: Tracks such as ''Fake Plastic Trees'' and ''How To Disappear Completely'' attest to Thom Yorke and co''s sadness. Ironically, off stage Yorke is said to be one of the funniest men in the industry.

Everyone likes to wallow in self pity from time to time, and you can rest assured that when you do, there'll be plenty of bands and artists that can act as the perfect soundtrack to your misery.

In honour of feeling low, we've put together a list of the 25 most depressing bands and singers for you to sift through and use next time you get dumped. From depressed divas to miserable rockers - no matter what you're after, we've got the bleakest, most pessimistic artists of all time. Hurrah! And also boo hoo hoo...

So, next time you get fired, stub your toe, or your cat goes missing, look through this list for some melancholic inspiration. Enjoy. (But not too much, or that would defeat the object...)
